Many of you definitely like portable apps because they are easy to carry, transport, no installation needed and so on. But having so many portable apps sometimes become frustrating. Every time you need to run an application first you need to find executable file. So it will be easy if you have application launcher for your portable apps. May be some of you using apps launcher like appetizer or CodySafe free (both are freeware).

I know what’s in your mind , you’ll be thinking if there are freeware then why we need CodySafe Sigma (fact-you are not interested in that, you just want a license key :D m I right?).

With CodySafe Sigma you can turn your USB flash drive to a “PC on a stick” – an independent portable system for management of your favorite software applications, your documents, your settings and scripts. You may launch applications on any computer without installation. And no footprints will remain on the computer after your unplug your flash drive with CodySafe Sigma.

Above is all what IObit want to say about its latest release IObit Security 360 Beta 1. Now here is what i think about this product.

Installation process of IObit 360 is simple and quick, and updates are also fast but signatures are 2-3days old(it means after its release on 9 jun 09 there are no updates). Interface is very simple and user –friendly. Everything in the “PC Security Status” (except scan option) and “Tools” section is grayed out, meaning none of these features are active or functional. What’s up with that? And the overall settings seem very light on user configurability, I like the transparency feature.. .

I checkout its smart scan, At first, smart scan took around 7 minutes to scan 53277 object and 2nd time it took only 4-5 minutes where as CPU usage and memory usage is same in both situation ( see above image). Although CPU usage is almost 50% but memory usage is varying from 1,600-6500KB amazing.

Overall it is good,deserve to be used at least once (after that may be you’ll love it).But I have one question for IObit that if they really want us to test it, shouldn’t we have full access to all features?

That’s what i have to say about IObit security 360 Beta 1.What about you ? What you think ? Is it good or bad ? Share with us via comments :)

Today I discovered a way to get __ year (fill it,as you wish ;)) iolo AntiVirus genuine license key for free. iolo AntiVirus normally cost $27.97 for one year subscription but will be FREE if you follow the instructions.

iolo AntiVirus keeps you safe by using advanced real-time technology that provides continuous maximum protection and automatically repels viruses before they can enter your computer.Its fully integrated email protection works transparently in the background automatically scanning and disinfecting messages as they are transmitted, and an intuitive interface makes it easy to activate scheduled system inspections for a permanently virus-free PC.

Keeping its description short, here are the steps to get free iolo AntiVirus genuine license to protect your computer from virus, worms, trojans and other threats:-

1. Visit this page and click Continue button. You should see a page with the Item Code AV1FPRM, Description iolo Antivirus Free Promotion, 3 PC, One Year with the order total showing $0.00. Click Secure Checkout button.

2. Enter your first name, last name, address 1, city, postal code, country phone number and email address. You can actually enter fake or bogus information but make sure the email address is a real one. Click Continue button.

3. Make sure Email Delivery is selected and click Continue button.

4. Review Order page will load and click Place Order button.You see a page that says “Thank you! Your order #XXXXXXXXXXXXXX is complete.”

Now here’s the trick to get the license for ___ year;)

5. Don’t close the page in 4 step.Again go to the link in 1 step,click continue button.You should see a page with same item code,but in this page you can change the quantity according to the number of years you want iolo Antivirus license (here I’ve changed it to 2000). Similarly follow 2,3 and 4 step.

6. Once again you see a page that says “Thank you! Your order #XXXXXXXXXXXXXX is complete.”, check the email address that you’ve entered at step 2. Open the email from iolo technologies, LLC (orders@iolo.com) with the subject “Thank you for ordering from iolo technologies, #XXXXXXXXXXXXXX.Note down the User ID and Serial Number.

8. Select “I own iolo AntiVirus and can enter my serial number later” and click Next.

9. Enter the User ID and Serial # that you noted down earlier. Click OK and continue with the installation.

Voila! You now have a genuinely registered iolo AntiVirus.

In my opinion this is not the good antivirus to use, avira and avast(both are freeware) are far better than iolo Antivirus, besides that it is heavy on system resources but this is not bad for those who want to test it.

Enjoy!!

Note :-This link will not work if you use Kaspersky, so pause protection and then try.

You are one of those computer users who don’t like to install antivirus on your machine? or do have antivirus but don’t perform regular antivirus update? or experiencing the damaging effects of a virus infection?
